This vehicle has been repainted into a two-tone yellow and maroon base livery, and has also received "Venture" branding. Venture Transport was the largest independent bus operator in North East England, and Go North East has resurrected the Venture name to local services operating in Derwentside. Venture Transport operated services in the Derwent Valley between Consett and Newcastle upon Tyne. It was founded after World War I, and, on 1 May 1970, it was sold to the Northern General Transport Company with 86 buses.
